Unable to reach ASP.NET MVC Web Api endpoint - asp.net

Question

I am working on an ASP.NET MVC app. I am trying to create a basic API. I created my first Web API controller by right-clicking on Controllers, Add -> Controller... then choosing "Web API 2 Controller - Empty". In the controller code, I have the following:
namespace MyProject.Controllers
{
public class MyApiController : ApiController
{
public IHttpActionResult Get()
{
var results = new[]
{
new { ResultId = 1, ResultName = "Bill" },
new { ResultId = 2, ResultName = "Ted" }
};
return Ok(results);
}
}
}
When I run the app, I enter http://localhost:61549/api/myApi in the browser's address bar. Unfortunately, I get a 404. I'm just trying to create an API endpoint that returns a hard-coded set of JSON objects. I need this to test some client-side JavaScript. What am I doing wrong?
Here are how my routes are registered:
WebApiConfig.cs
public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
{
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
}
RouteConfig.cs
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}

Answer 1

Make sure that you have the WebApiConfig registration being called, possibly in the Global.asax Application_Start() method. Something like:
protected void Application_Start()
{
AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);
FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
}

Answer 2

You did not add method name at the end of call. Try this one:
http://localhost:61549/api/myapi/get

Answer 3

Try this approach
namespace MyProject.Controllers
{
public class MyApiController : ApiController
{
public IHttpActionResult Get()
{
var results = new List<ResultModel>
{
new ResultModel() {ResultId = 1, ResultName = "Bill"},
new ResultModel() {ResultId = 2, ResultName = "Ted"}
};
return Ok(results);
}
}
public class ResultModel
{
public int ResultId { get; set; }
public string ResultName { get; set; }
}
}
Api: http://localhost:61549/api/MyApi/get
Hope this helps.
